Don’t know. I’ve only tried it with whole milk.

I’ve only used whole milk. You might google to see if you can find anyone who’s done it with 2% milk. The worst that can happen though is you ruin 1/2 gallon of 2% milk and 1 cup of plain yogurt so if you can’t find anyone who’s done it, just try it and let us know what happens.

Mmmmm Judy. I’ve been wanting to try your yogurt recipe for awhile now-I think it’s time to take the plunge. I was wondering if you ever tried this with 2% milk instead of whole milk. I love the idea of making my own but I’m cringing at the extra calories in whole milk-I’m still trying to work off the Christmas cookies that took up residence around my waist!

Judy, does it have to be whole milk or do you think I can get away with 1%? I don’t know enough to know if the fat in whole milk is necessary for the yogurt.

I love your containers! Where did you get them? I’m looking forward to giving this a try!

I’ve never tried adding vanilla. Vanilla alone isn’t going to add any sweetness, whereas the jam I add does add some sweetness. I’m not sure that adding vanilla flavored yogurt. I’ve never tried that.

Did you reply to the above questions? could I get those answers, too? I don’t like plain yogurt but love vanilla and some fruit yogurts. And I would really like to try this.

Judy, what type of thermometer do you have that you can check the temp without disturbing the lid?

I’m so glad you posted this! You have me baking bread, knitting socks and now making yogurt. What a good influence you are! One question though…how long will the yogurt last in the fridge? More than 1 week? Thanks so much! ~Karleen
